It all seems to come down to lack of maintenance and abuse that determines parts failure.

The Discovery was a gamble but pretty rare in manual with the 300tdi - it also has really surprised me off rd.

Also at 6 foot 4 inches tall is one of the most comfortable trucks Iv been in ... I had to put the seat forward a bit...

Dunedin to Picton on Saturday in one stretch very impressive

The biggest headaches I've had with my Discovery was trying to fix other peoples "improvements", instead of buying a $10 part the previous owner decided to run his own wires here, there and everywhere, and he was certainly no autosparky!

Failing to fix mechanical, electrical and water tightness issues before the become headached is what seems to kill most vehicles.
